    Don't upset yourself in vain RR because this is always the time of year the excuses arrive by the shed load and the waste of time transfer window will follow soon. I an't say I'm lost for words because I, and many others, have said the same thing for years and years and years.

    P.S. Tiger my son was born in the same hospital.

    But as a club there is no denying there has been a year on year progression , that is undeniable, the question for Steve now is has he taken us as far as he can? I don’t know the answer , but it’s a question that needs posing, like you though if we fail to win and play badly in the next two home games I believe Steve will have to consider our next move.
    For the record I hope we win the next two home games handsomely and finish top 6 so the question doesn’t need to be posed.

    Dire result today against a team that hasn’t won in 11 games. Shocking.
    4 defeats in a row now. Not good enough if promotion is our aim.

    Individually we now have quality throughout the team, LJ needs to get them playing as a team to utilise those qualities, I don’t know the answer , but he’s the head coach it’s his job to find the answer, over to you Lee.

    I really believe that Lee has taken us a far as his abilities allow and if he truly thinks we have a more capable squad then why are we not performing better? Perhaps drifting aimlessly through a season would be acceptable to some but then there are those, including myself, that think with all the time and money invested during Lee's tenure that we should by now have achieved at least a play-off berth.

    Let's just suppose that Lee has had full control of all things Bristol City including player recruitment, team selection and formation, which I think are his main job requirements, then I have to conclude that his mandate has not been met -yet. I don't think for a single minute that our manager is going anywhere soon and if that is the case then I would be tempted to give up on any thoughts of true success for the next 4 or 5 seasons.

    Why is my club so willing to accept mediocrity?

    Wonder what the score would have been if Charlton had been able to play their 1st team.
    Hey, City will beat Luton.
    But we're treading water under Junior's tenure.
    Another influx of ordinary types in January adding further confusion for poor old Junior.

    I reckon we will draw with Luton and lose to Brentford.
    Sadly

    I got back at 9pm, anyways, I thought we started the game ok, their wasn’t really much into it and should have gone in 0-0 at HT but for a stupid mistake by Bentley running off his line

    The second half we started great and were fantastic up until 60 mins funnily enough we were 2-1 up at this point and it was Eliasson again involved with both, why he never starts I don’t know as he seems to be our only decent threat at goal and can produce anything.

    2-1 up and let’s go for a 3/4th goal but no just like at home we sit back on it and invite pressure and they score 2 goals from nothing. Shocking defensive display today really pissed off with how we are playing lately, not looking forward to Luton and we have absolutely no chance against Brentford

    Glad didn't have to go back today Bentley has one of those games he seemed to have at brentford last season.

    Worse thing is it like the liverpool under klopp in his first few seasons good midfielders but no creativity number of times ball went back or the wrong way

    Brentford will beat us, of that I'm fairly certain.
    Luton are rubbish at times but we're rubbish constantly at the moment
    Shocking decision making again from Bentley for their opener and the whole team were dire for Charlton's 3rd as a defensive unit.
    Should we lose to Luton as well as Brentford then Johnson has to go. Enough excuses and waffle.
    He has no new ideas and under his tenure despite all of the money he's had, we're just a below average team in a very average division.
    For those who say what a bright and up and coming star of a manager he is, where is the queue of better clubs trying to tempt him away from us ?
    At this rate father and son will be visiting the unemployment office early in 2020.
